Sprocket

It is fair to say that meeting Gregor and Linnea has been a blessing for both us as owners and for our dog, Sprocket. As first time dog owners, we were looking for a very special service, that we could be sure would 100% meet the needs of our dog..and we have gained this and so much more from Walk and Train Edinburgh. Sprocket has been lucky enough to go out every week with Gregor, walking in the hills each day with his lovely pack. Both he..and us unruly humans (!)...have also benefited from Linnea's training mastery during a 1-2-1 session. The combination of skills, knowledge and passion that Gregor and Linnea share between them mean that they are able to offer a truly unique service, which I do not believe exists anywhere else in Edinburgh in the same form.

We know that during his walks with Gregor, Sprocket is happy, motivated and safe with Gregor's pack. The level of commitment to training and holistic care during his day trips is second to none, and Sprocket comes home feeling relaxed, calm and content at the end of each day. He has grown in physical strength over the months and his confidence and obedience have also come along at the same time. Having a dog that is very sensitive and has specific dietary needs means that we really did feel we needed to work with someone who offered something outside of the normal dog-walking services. We have found this with Walk and Train Edinburgh.

After we began to work with Gregor, we went on to meet Linnea for a 1-2-1 session, so that we could continue to build on Sprocket's training at home, and so that we could get to understand and build the best possible relationship with our dog. After only a few minutes of meeting Linnea it was clear that she has an incredible ability to read both dogs and (maybe more importantly) their owners. It took very little time for her to highlight the areas that we needed to work on as owners, and to give us the confidence to move forward with our next steps. The follow up information that she provided was also fantastic.

I have gone on to recommend Walk and Train Edinburgh to many friends with dogs, and really do so because I believe so completely in what they do. It is absolutely not an exaggeration to say that meeting Gregor and Linnea has been a total ray of sunshine in our lives! Thank you so much for all you do for all of us that are lucky enough to meet and work with you.
